Date:
Oct 18 (10:10am) - Oct 21 (10:10am)
This mini-symposium will serve to facilitate cross-disciplinary collaboration of social science research and complex operations, highlight current interagency complex operations processes and practices and the social theory and research upon which these are built, and discuss the emergence of methods and approaches that may help apply social science, regional expertise, and knowledge on current policy topics to studies and other analytic efforts.
The conference will feature a number of key speakers and panelists who are leading researchers and practitioners in applying an analytic response to the complex social, economic and behavioral challenges facing society today. This will be a mini-symposium, not a workshop; all the sessions will meet in the same plenary room. The presentations will all be tutorial-like and grouped into three topical areas:
Day 1 – Emerging Social Science Research
Day 2 – Interagency and Social Science Research
Day 3 – Interagency and Social Organizational Processes
